The Caritas Well on Gammeltorv in Copenhagen is the oldest of the fountains in Copenhagen. It's from 1608 and ordered by King Christian IV. On certain days, like the Queen's birthday, golden orbs made by copper coated with 24 carat gold is put in the fountain. To hinder theft a discreet guard is placed there as well.
